Some nice commentary on the #HayliGubbi #eruption here from @julietbiggs.bsky.social and others. As discussed, it's unlikely that this is actually the first eruption of the volcano in 12,000 years. The Afar region is very active but also remote and understudied.

The Hayli Gubbi volcano, long thought to be dormant, sent ash nine miles into the sky in an eruption on Sunday
